Workflow Statistics Report Results

This tab displays the workflow statistics searched for in a workflow statistics report. Each workflow statistics report will open a new workflow statistics report results tab. You can export, organize, chart, and print these statistics from this tab.

The following statistics are shown about each workflow version returned by a workflow statistics report search: 

• Workflow name, ID, and version number. (Each time you re-publish a workflow it is given a new version number. The first time you publish a workflow, it is version 1 of the workflow.)
• The total number of workflow instances of each version that the report returned.

Note: Total Instances is not the total number of workflow instances for each version that exist, but rather the total number of instances the report returned for that version. For example, you have ten instances of a workflow: three instances are waiting, three are completed, and four are terminated. If you create a report for completed and terminated instances of the workflow, the Total Instances column will list seven instances, not ten instances.

• The number of running, completed, and terminated workflow instances of each workflow version.

Note: If you configure your workflow statistics report to only return workflow instances with specific statuses, only the columns for those statuses will be shown and all other status columns will be hidden. For example, if you search for all completed instances of a workflow (but not the terminated or running instances), the "Terminated Instances" and "Running Instances" columns will be hidden.

• The maximum, minimum, and average time it took for a workflow version to run.

Tip: If multiple versions of a single workflow are included in the statistic results, a plus sign will appear next to the workflow's name. Click the plus sign to view statistics for the workflow's versions. Click the minus button to collapse the workflow and hide the version statistics.
